I test every driver I've played from 2017 to 2024 to see if newer is always better!

My Current Driver: PING G430 10K Max – https://pga-tour-superstore.pxf.io/AWX67a

My Shaft: BGT Brava NRG – https://breakthroughgolftech.com/#a_aid=letsplaythruaffiliatelink

Love my Ping 10K. Nelly Korda is really loving her Qi10 Max. If she wins tomorrow, she might spark the 10K era.

@MichaelSmittySmithScottsdaleAz says:

Pxg wins
Hit draw you like with max distance and good dispersion plus on the Ping you had a $400 plus shaft

@carldecator2970 says:

My experience is NO! I got fitted for a Taylormade Qi10 to replace my Stealth. Terrible result: my dispersion is tighter and I’m longer with theStealth.

The Qi10 is in my office…the Stealth remains in my bag.

Good video, Gabe!

I just ordered the pxg gen 4 x and got it for free had some amazon gift cards laying around. Cant beat that ????

Waited a bit and got a new Cobra Aerojet for $300. Seeing an average of 5-6 mph ball speed over my Radspeed XB driver. Loving it!

@user-gw6dy4qv3e says:

why do you sway so much when you talk its kinda disturbing

@johnbrodnik839 says:

Very interesting!

Dispersion can also be attributed to gains in graphite shaft improvements, too! Ventus anyone!?

I would look at lowering the
loft on the TSR3 since it looks like its launching much higher than the rest of the pack.

Why not look at a ball change too.

A little disappointed in the Ping 10k the Anser to All of Man kinds dilemmas . ????

Im Waiting for the ball change and a 425 cc driver max change!!

@codyr4816 says:

Very good video and seems like an upgrade every 3 driver cycles or so makes the most sense unless you have the money and just want something shiny. Still wish I could afford a TSR3 over anything out currently

@vandertodd says:

I love your content, but please stand still when talking into the camera, you're making me anxious bro…..

@brettsavelkoul8377 says:

I could not justify spending that much on a driver and not see a more significant gain. Thanks for showing this tho! Seems like more golf content creators are getting into this space to give normal people info on old and new drivers. To me it seems like if you can get a good 2 nd hand driver that fits you and save your self 400+ dollars. That’s the move for most people.

@Lovetheducks says:

Your best distance will always be turning over a high toe.

@Lovetheducks says:

There is no way drivers improve very much if at all over a year. It’s all a scam and we are the marks. I driver should easily stay current over a five year period.

@geoffcohen613 says:

Still using R9 taylor made,just change shaft. This is my driver for park stule courses.
On link courses, use Titliest D915 as it disperses more but goes 10m further

@obxarms7685 says:

Gabe is at the bottom of that coffee pot on this one! Lets go!

@454budman says:

I want that new ping but I dont know that upgrading from my G425 would be worth it for the $$

@spartybjones4511 says:

You are looking much healthier than videos ive seen in the past. Keep it up!

@adrianlovett3483 says:

Struggling to see why you would pay £500 to upgrade from the Sim 2 , longest and pretty good dispersion.

@scottw9267 says:

"A lot of balls perform better off toe". Thats because GCs calcs overestimate the extra yards you get from having the spin come off. Those wouldnt perform better on any other launch monitor and definitely not better on course.

@jlnew10 says:

I would be exceedingly disappointed if my Ping 10k with Brava shaft ($950) produced those numbers……..just my observation.

@soundbydesignindia3730 says:

Rocking the M1 still but also itching to pick something new

@richdouglas2311 says:

With USGA limits on clubhead specs, it's hard to grab more distance with anything–clubs or balls. But forgiveness/accuracy? There's still room. But still, it all comes down to proper fitting!
